The Community Conservation Fund of Namibia has been established as a sustainable funding mechanism for CBNRM-targeted* conservation efforts as we advance from the current phase of donor-supported development to a permanent state of self-finance and sustainability.
Mission
To promote the sustainable development of communal conservancies, community forests and related natural resource management entities with a similar legal mandate that contribute to:
- conservation, protection and improvement of the natural environment and biodiversity, including the sustainable use of natural resources; and
- relief of poverty and the improvement of livelihoods for the benefit of the members of communal conservancies and community forests.
Sustainable development is defined as “development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”.
Vision
To be an efficient and effective financing partner for sustainable community anchored natural resource management and development in Namibia.
